Why? I do not see what is wrong with complaints. I think complaints are
valuable, you can see what customers find important, and you can, maybe,
adjust your marketing strategy by that. If I like one thing about using
open source software, it is that I can complain, and that most of the
time something is actually done with the complaint.

I do not think that comparing a company to Microsoft is namecalling (I
develop (amongst others) Microsoft products for a living), but I now see
that some people here do.

Best regards,
